Woh, it bootstraps?

Without the mess of changes to the frame code that i am committing
right now, i couldn't get many of the libraries built-- but that's
probably because i built 4-5 multilibs as a stress test.

I am running sim tests right now to compare enabled vs non-enabled
altivec toolchains.

Btw, do you have an update on the vector initializers-- which i hope
will make it in for 3.1 as a "bugfix" since altivec will be completely
useless without them :)
